Which practice would most undermine the credibility of an LTP framework in the eyes of business units?

Opaque pricing that lacks a clear policy and is frequently overridden without documentation most undermines an LTP framework. Better practice requires transparent, governed, consistently applied methodology, regular curve updates and independent review, so business units trust the internal prices and respond to them appropriately.
